In this paper we introduce and study a new complexity measure for finite words. For positive integer d special scattered subwords, called super-d-subwords, in which the gaps are of length at least (d−1), are defined. We give methods to compute super-d-complexity (the total number of different super-d-subwords) in the case of rainbow words (with pairwise different letters) by recursive algorithm...

Spacetime superalgebras with 64 or less number of real supercharges, containing the type IIB Poincaré superal-gebra in (9, 1) dimensions and the N = 1 Poincaré superalgebra in (10, 1) are considered. The restriction D ≤ 14, and two distinct possibilities arise: The N = (1, 0) superalgebra in (11, 3) dimensions, and the N = (2, 0) super-algebra in (10, 2) dimensions. Emphasizing the former, we d...

BACKGROUND Bariatric surgery is being performed commonly in various practice settings. To evaluate safety and efficacy, we reviewed the results of our first 516 laparoscopic bariatric operations performed in a community hospital setting. METHODS We reviewed retrospectively the results of our first 516 consecutive laparoscopic bariatric procedures. RESULTS Between December 2001 and December ...

We study when Calabi-Yau supermanifolds M with one complex bosonic coordinate and two complex fermionic coordinates are super Ricci-flat, and find that if the bosonic manifold is compact, it must have constant scalar curvature. In [1], we found that super Ricci-flat Kähler manifolds with one fermionic dimension and an arbitrary number of bosonic dimensions exist above a bosonic manifold with a ...

Tissue-specific enhancers are critical for gene regulation. In this study, we help elucidate the contribution of muscle-associated differential DNA methylation to the enhancer activity of highly muscle-specific genes. By bioinformatic analysis of 44 muscle-associated genes, we show that preferential gene expression in skeletal muscle (SkM) correlates with SkM-specific intragenic and intergenic ...

While there is a considerable body of literature correlating the role of dopaminergic genes and obesity, body mass index, body type, overeating, carbohydrate binging, energy expenditure and low dopamine D2 receptor (D2R) receptor density, there is a paucity of research concerning the dopamine D2 receptor gene (DRD2) variants and percent body fat. We report here the potential association of DRD2...

Let Φ be a super-operator, i.e., a linear mapping of the form Φ : L(F) → L(G) for finite dimensional Hilbert spaces F and G. This paper considers basic properties of the super-operator norms defined by ‖Φ‖q→p = sup{‖Φ(X)‖p/‖X‖q : X 6= 0}, induced by Schatten norms for 1 ≤ p, q ≤ ∞. These super-operator norms arise in various contexts in the study of quantum information. In this paper it is prov...

in this work, different types of chaotic 1-manifolds which lie on the chaotic spheres or on a torus are introduced. some types of retractions of the chaotic spheres affect on the 1-chaotic systems, and other types of retractions occur to the geometric manifold but make the 1-chaotic manifold invariant. the existed retractions are discussed through new proved theorems. also we construct diffe...
